The second half was typical Hollywood. Have you seen a chase scene? Have you seen a gunfight? Are you familiar with Hollywood's preference for drama over realism? OK, that's the second half. The first half gets a B. The second half gets a D. It's worth waiting for it to come out on DVD. The first half of the movie was food for thought.

The irony is that I'm denouncing exactly the kind of bad feeling (hatred) those movies elicited in me. This is all to gloomy SF and so absurd as obviously human beings are so subdued and dumb in those movies, it made me crying! Besides, as a convinced Transhumanist, I'm fed up with "cautionary tales" ;-( I always hated “Planet of the Apes”, the original movie, its sequel and even more the series.
